NA cam is fine for turbo, but a turbo cam isnt for NA

$150 is very good price out of the US, I wish i knew that before i paid $350 for this one!

Will set aside the electrics and update later...

so friggin hot here 35 deg, need more hydration!

FWIW! Be very careful what you buy overseas. Have to be very certain the cam you get is a genuine Nissan core. I have a cam that is an C cam, the so called 260Z works competition cam and was guaranteed it was a genuine core, but it wasn't and it arrived in 2 pieces.

That being said, I have a fairly wild cam here out of a 280ZX turbo on a genuine blank & have a 270 on it's way, along with new lash pads and recond rockers and new rocker springs. I'm going to use the 270 first as the other is 292 and that's going away for a rainy day.

You guys should take a step back and think really hard what your plans are for your car, because the end use will determin the cam and everything else you buy. Horsepower isn't the bees knees of everything, you need torque to create the initial inertia to get the beast rolling and the more of this you have, the better your car will perform.

Cheers, D

I think it is designed to be an N/A cam but apparently also works well with turbos. Got new lashpads and was told the same rocker arms would work

Located in Canberra mate . Cheers for the offers guys but I have already sourced the L20ET turbo setup from a bloke who used to rally Datsuns. Probably be a few months before I actually get going on the turbo work though.

Suppose no-one has a Microtech MT-4 laying around that they are willing to sell?

;)

Also, anyone know of anywhere that does cheapish resprays around canberra?

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
